If the moon were bigger, its gravitational pull on Earth would increase, resulting in higher tidal ranges. This would lead to more pronounced high tides and lower low tides, potentially causing greater flooding in coastal areas during high tide events. The increased tidal forces could also alter the timing and frequency of tides, impacting marine ecosystems and human activities along Coastlines. Overall, larger tides could have significant environmental and societal implications.
What else can I help you with?
What would happen to the Earth's tides if the moon was twice the size as it is now?
What matters heres is the Moon's mass, as well as its distance. With a more massive Moon (and in the same orbit), the tides would of course be stronger.
What would happen if there was no such thing as the moon?
Then there would be no nice full moons. The tides would also be quite a bit weaker (we would still have tides due to the Sun's gravity).
If the moon was gone what will happen to the ocean?
The gravitational pull of the moon directly affects the tides in the ocean. If the moon were suddenly gone, the tides would decrease in intensity and frequency. However, other factors like the sun's gravity would still influence ocean tides to some extent.
What kind of tide spring or neap would you expect during a full moon?
During a full moon, you would expect a spring tide. This occurs because the gravitational forces of the moon and the sun are aligned, leading to higher high tides and lower low tides. Spring tides happen twice a month, during both the full moon and new moon phases.
Similar spring tides and neap tides?
"Spring" tides are higher-than-normal tides that occur when the Moon is full or new; when the tidal forces of the Sun and Moon are additive. Lower-than-normal "neap" tides happen when the Moon is at the 1st or 3rd quarter, when the Moon and the Sun are working at cross-purposes on the tides.
What would happen to the earths tide if the moon was further away?
High tides would be smaller and low tides would be bigger, but would still occur. The cause of the tides is the gravitational attraction between the earth and moon, and to a lesser extent, between the earth and sun. If the moon were further from the earth, its gravitational attraction would be less strong, and its effect on the earth's liquid envelope would be correspondingly less.
What would happen to the tides as a result?
If the moon were to be destroyed there would still be tides. This would be because of the sun still being in assistance and affecting the tides.
What would happen to the earth tides if the distance between earth and the moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
What would happen to Earth and tides if the distance between Earth and the Moon increased?
Tides would become stronger.
What would happen to earth if it lost its moon?
High tides wouldn't be as high and low tides wouldn't be as low.
What whould happen if you had no moon?
if there were no moon, there would be no light in the sky at night (earth would be a lot darker at night, earth's days would be longer (earth will rotate slower), and there will be no tides (the moon pulls the tides)
What would happen if the moon did not circle the earth?
we would have no tides and night would be pitch black
What would happen to the Earth's tides if the moon was twice the size as it is now?
What matters heres is the Moon's mass, as well as its distance. With a more massive Moon (and in the same orbit), the tides would of course be stronger.
What would happen to the tides if there was more than 1 moon?
the tides and was would go ballistic and there would be tsunamis everywhere and lots of us would die
What would happen if earth had tow moons?
It would be brighter then just a moon, and tides would be different.
What would happen if there was no such thing as the moon?
Then there would be no nice full moons. The tides would also be quite a bit weaker (we would still have tides due to the Sun's gravity).
Why do tieds happen?
If you mean "tides" as in waves... Tides happen from the moon's gravity pulling up on the water.
